Tamiya TT01 Motor Mount Plate Alloy Heatsink Upgrade TT018 by GPM  [TT018]

Finned aluminium motor plate

This aftermarket plate is built for the Tamiya TT01 chassis to replace the factory motor mount with a solid aluminium plate that provides a heatsink surface. It is designed as an upgrade to help manage motor heat and maintain correct motor-to-gearbox positioning during tuning and track sessions.

The plate offers two practical benefits: improved passive cooling and a more rigid motor mount. The integrated fins increase metal surface area for shedding heat and the alloy body reduces flex compared to stock plastic, helping keep pinion and spur alignment steady for consistent drive on sealed surfaces.

Installation follows normal TT01 procedures: remove the stock mount, fit the motor to the new plate, and secure with the original mounting points and screws. Standard hex drivers are sufficient; verify torque settings and mesh after fitting and after the first few runs.
